macrocyclic heterobinuclear zn(ii)–cu(ii) complexes with phenol based dicompartmental ligands possessing contiguous hexa- and penta-coordination sites were prepared by a stepwise procedure. the ligands include similar n4o2 and dissimilar n(imine)3o2 and n(amine)3o2 coordination sites sharing two phenolic oxygen atoms. the six-coordination site comprises two pyridyl pendant arms on the amine nit...

In this study we assess for the first time the driving skills of young adults with developmental coordination disorder (DCD). We use a virtual city and a driving simulator to examine steering control, speed regulation and the responses to pedestrians on the road. Participants were adolescents and young adults who had been diagnosed with the disorder as children. For most participants the sympto...

Play is commonly acknowledged as being important to children's development. School-aged children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) are known to be less involved in play and more socially isolated than their typically developing peers, but little is known about play of preschool children with DCD. Using a quasi-experimental design, developmental play skills and frequency in engageme...

Factors shaping joint coordination during multijoint movements were studied using a one-handed ball-catching task. Typically developing (TD) boys between 9 and 12 yr of age, at which catching becomes consistently successful, and boys with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) of the same age participated in the study. The arm was initially stretched down. Catching was performed by flexing t...

This review paper discusses the Reo coordination language in the wider context of its research area. It explains the concept of coordination and argues its significance. Those concepts, models and languages that were of considerable importance in the preliminary research that lead up to the development of Reo, are explained, discussed and evaluated. In particular Linda, Manifold, and Reo itself...

nanoparticles of coordination polymer [co2(pydc)2(h2o)6]n.2n h2o [h2pydc = pyridine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid] have been synthesized by sonochemical method and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, powder x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, dls particle size analysis and tga/dta. the structure of single crystalline coordination polymer developed from nanosized coo...

objectives: the aim of this research is to compare cognitive flexibility and adjustment between two groups of students with developmental coordination disorder (dcd) and typically developing students. methods: for this purpose, 50 students with dcd and 50 typically developing students were chosen among 12 primary schools. the developmental coordination disorder questionnaire (dcd-q), adjustment...

one effective method for improving the performance of supply chain is making coordination among members of supply chain. this paper studies the subject of coordination of supply chain by using an insurance contract. the supply chain consists of one-manufacturer and one-retailer that the retailer is faced with potential demand and returning of goods from customer. acceptance of goods returned is...
